1983 Map of Mineral Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

The Clark Mountain Range and Mescal Range dominate this high-desert terrain in the early 1980s, revealing a landscape defined by industrial extraction and arid-land navigation. The Carbonate King Mine sits near the western edge of the quadrangle, illustrating the area's history of mineral prospecting. Below the peaks, the vast Ivanpah Valley opens to the east, home to a Dirt Landing Strip and a portion of Ivanpah Lake at the northeastern corner. Water management is a critical theme of this survey, evidenced by the presence of a Pipeline and Underground Water Pipeline cutting through the valley. Reliable water sources like Wheaton Spring and Mineral Spring are essential landmarks in a region carved by seasonal drainages such as Wheaton Wash, Horse Wash, and Yorkshire Canyon. This provisional edition captures the corridor of Interstate 15 as it facilitates modern passage through this historical mining territory.
